Preparing the Family Grave
In former years 1t was the custom in
old Esopus, now Kingston, N. Y, for all
thrifty DANES to prepare grave clothes
for h various members of their family.
With the growth of a child the old
grave clothes would be discarded and
new garments made. A laughable story
about a relative of the Lite Judge West
brook, of Kingston, is told by an ex.
change:
Mrs. Is grave clothes had been
laid carefully away for many along day.
When grown yellow or unused looking
the old lady would ''do them up fresh
with her W hands, and a feeling of
blissful readiness and security would
again be hers.
One day a neighbor called on the old
lady, and the latter was found to be
greatly %perturbed over something.
Guess you'd be lustered, too" said
the excited dame, '.if somebody came
and borrowed your grave clothes, just
after they'd all been done up fresh. That
shiftless Miss - l knew she wouldn't
have anything fit to wear when she came
to die; and sure enough, it was borrow,
borrow, even after her death. Such
shiftlessness l never could endured Now
I've got to go to work and make up an
other set, OIL / may be catched in the
same box"
The old lady, who was then past 90,
went promptly to work and had fresh
grave clothes made up, and it is asserted
on good authority that she lived only a
few hours after their completion

A Good Old Age.

Long lived heredity Is not simply a
physical tendency to live. 1t is also a
tendency to the habits of life, conduct
and thought that preserve constitutional
vigor, and hold in check or eradicate
whatever might hamper natures recuper-
alive power.
This suggests the practical lesson we
would enforce. By the voluntary cult
walton of good habits those who have
reached, say the age of 80, in sound
health, may hcpe to live to a good and
happy old age.-Youth's Companion.

That send : breath the spring to gresA
Across q great expanse;
They lean soft cheeks together there,
They smile at love, with faces fair
What keeps the sunshine glIntinK nearf
Young love, perchAnce.
A hedge grown dim with autumn's hADs,
Tendrils that cling In loving maze,
Through drear, or cold, or cloudy days;
Across the great expanse
Comes on the fierce September sun,
When rosy flush and perfumes done;
The rays the faded flowers shun
Without . glAnoa-

May you enough for her be found

May no gay wooe ask a smile
Too lightsome wight with winsome wilsi
